So it's a new year and all that jazz. A time of new beginnings, changes-- a whole slate fresh for the writing on. Reflecting on the past...
Well, this last year has been interesting. I wrote in LJ less than I have before, deleted a bunch of stuff that just wasn't worth posting or reflecting on. This past year was loads better than the year before. One reason is because I moved away from Utah finally, back to the east coast. As I had said in an earlier entry, I originally wanted to move because I had to run away. Many people noticed that the environment in Utah wasn't good for me anymore. I was sick, I was mentally unstable and I was just plain unhappy after awhile. The summer before destroyed any reason to want to stay in Utah.
Now, though-- now it's different and I'm much happier here. I've got three jobs (well, sort of two and a half, cause one of them's seasonal and we all know how long those last) and the newest one is something I'm just practically giddy about. :D It was the best end to an old year and one lovely way to start the next. I'll be doing part time research for a lady who works with non-profit companies. :D I'll even learn grant writing and this is just the biggest awesome EVER. I get to learn a new skill set, get paid for it and to do research to help other people. I'm just thrilled. :D The internet does not have the capability to show my YAAAAY over research.
Living with my friends has ups and downs-- as with anything. But there are so many ups that the downs sort of fade into the background. I have awesome friends here, awesome support and understanding. I kick myself everyday over money troubles, but those are slowly sliding away and I hope by the end of this month, I'll finally be caught up with rent. >.> I'm not proud of it at all, but I'm glad to finally be near the end (thanks to my lovely family members).
I'm the type of person that likes a definite focus in life-- I'm sadly not the type that leaps off the cliff into adventure. I have dreams in my head, but when it comes to plans in life, I like to make sure that some things are stable. This year is full of uncertainties, but there's enough stable in them that I'll be fine.
Ah, let's see-- the internet has been a constant with friendship *laughs* I've gotten more into tumblr and that's just loads of picture-fun. :D
Well, LJ is being wonky, so I'll just end this here. Here's to 2012.
